The Baker Retreat is a stunningly beautiful property decorated to invite comfort, coziness and relaxation. It is in a quiet, peaceful and treed location within walking and/or driving distance to the lake, beach and village of Lion's Head. The perfect spot to relax and enjoy nature. The amenities are extensive and exceptional and the host displayed such a conscientious effort to provide everything that guests would ever need or want.

About the host

Hosted by Josh & Joyce Baker

Host profile image

It is our vision as a family to provide a retreat that is fun, relaxing and rejuvenating for all ages.
We are a family of five who have been vacationing up in the Bruce Peninsula for years. We along with our three children have all fallen for its rustic beauty, starry nights, majestic lake and simple pleasures. We desired to find a retreat that reflected all that the Bruce has to offer. We are passionate about sharing our space with others needing a break from their busy and sometimes complicated lives. We believe that The Baker Retreat offers all of this and more and for some a spiritual retreat enabling them to go back home with a new spirit of strength, energy and endurance.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this log home and its great history. The love that the original owners put into this home is evident and we continue to pour our hearts into this unique and relaxing retreat.

What makes this property unique

We are located on a private lot giving you the feeling of being far into the woods. Yet just around the corner to Huron Lake with the highly coveted Sandy Beach. You will fall in love with the rustic log home with all the amenities that take the stress of packing away. The attention to detail is evident to all who enter the home as they feel very cared for knowing that everything is on site for an enjoyable stay.
